Renewed apartment next to Porta San Frediano. Air conditioning in one room.

This recently renewed apartment rental is set on the first floor (European) of an ancient house, next to one of the most beautiful areas of Florence: the Porta San Frediano. A place full of life (lots of restaurants) and where one can still see a typical Italian neighborhood.

Even though it is set in a busy area the 3 bedrooms are very silent, with high-ceiling and original affrescos in most of the rooms.

Two of the bedrooms are equipped with air conditioning/heating units, while the third one with two twins beds isn't.

The main areas of the apartment have a lot of natural light, which enhances the sense of internal space.

The kitchen is big and fully equipped.

Both bathrooms are spacious, with showers and nice finishing.

The living room has a fireplace and a library. It is a special place in the house, where one can enjoy relaxing moments after a day walking through the city.

If you want to be connected with the world during your staying, no problem. The apartment has wifi internet and a TV with digital signal.

A few steps away from the apartment you have plenty of public transportation, if you find necessary using it. No more than 200 meters away you will find a well-served supermarket (Esselunga).

Nevertheless, you will find many other convenience stores and small local shops just a few meters far from your doorstep. You will also find plenty of restaurants, with high quality Italian food and other well ranked ones, in the area of apartment.

Situated 10 minutes away from the Central Station (Santa Maria Novella) the apartment has the perfect location when it comes to stay central, but far from the regular touristy crowds that one finds in the core of city. If you are coming by car the location will make it easy for you to find the address, as it is located close by the entrance/exit of main highways in Tuscany (Pisa/Livorno).

Spouse and familyOmotola E from Lagos,
Stayed for 0 days in August, 2013 First I wrote several requests and no one responded, called their nos like many others and they never picked. I then googled their company and found their official website. I called them as they had more nos. I eventually rented this apartment. A lady called Gabriela attended to me. She seemed nice. Since it was last minute(a day to our going to Florence) I asked for a discount. I was given about a € 50 discount. However,the ordeal stated as we got to the apartment as there was no one waiting for us there. This upset me as I was travelling with 4 kids with alot of luggage from Rome by train and tired!i called the guy who was supposed to come open aprtment(ceaser) he said he was with another client and we should wait ,he said this rather nonchalantly. ( we had emailed and called prior to leaving Rome to tell them we would be there for 12pm and was there 12pm!. I called Gabriela who was a bit apologetic, he came like 20mins after. We had told them ac and wifi was most important however, only two rooms had ac, the third room has no ac and only a sofa not bed. The Wifi only works well in 2 rooms. Does not work almost at all in living room and kitchen. When we asked Gabriela for an extra sofa, she said we had to pay for it and stopped sounding friendly.At this time, my husband was fed up and asked us to just manage all. This was just all in 1hr of arriving! The apartment itself was large, tastefully furnished and neat. There were no Bin bags to throw away the trash they insist you must throw away at checkout. Worst of all, I'm in venice now after checking out on the 26th( two days ago) and they still have not returned my security deposit!!! I had to email them and they asked if they can return it 21 days from my checkout which was not in the lease agreement! I'm still battling them as I write this review!

Overall Satisfacation

It has everything you could want, space, air-con, location, locaJules from Cardiff,
Stayed for 0 days in July, 2013 The agents were extremely helpful both on greeting and upon leaving. The apartment has two bedrooms with air con and one of those has an en-suite. The other bedroom has a pull out sofa making up a third double bed but no air-con. This room was at the front which got a bit hot and noisy as you are right on the street and above a fab bar that brews it's own beer. There is another very nice bathroom and the apt decor is delightful, very arty, and full of character and culture.
You will have to pay a cleaning fee of 50 Euros no matter how tidy you leave the apt and pay cash for the utilities, so keep some cash back (about 50 euros).
There are plenty of restaurants nearby and a deli, and bakery. The supermarket is by far the cheapest place to buy and is about a 7-10 minute walk to the left if you stand with your back to the main door. The apartment has really everything you could want including a pizza oven. The Station is about a 10-15min walk as are the majority of wonderful sights. But be aware that the prices to enter museums have increased and are not as shown on the websites. 11 euros to see David(closed Mondays), 7 euros to see Boboli Gardens, etc. The flea markets are really worth wandering around and do barter. The indoor food market is spectacular for fresh veg and fish and just the experience. And a trip to the Lido is a must, either during the day or for an evening experience.Just to note that if anyone in your party is over 65 take your passport as you enter lots of places free, as do children.
